AI should be used for this, yes, however advertisement is more profitable.

It's worse than that.
This is a different type of AI that doesn't have as many consumer facing qualities.
The ones that are being pushed now are the first types of AI to have an actually discernable consumer facing attribute or behavior, and so they're being pushed because no one wants to miss the boat.
They're not more profitable or better or actually doing anything anyone wants for the most part, they're just being used where they can fit it in.

Neural networks are great for pattern recognition, unfortunately all the hype is in pattern generation and we end up with mammograms in anime style

I had a housemate a couple of years ago who had a side job where she'd look through a load of these and confirm which were accurate. She didn't say it was AI though.

No link or anything, very believable.
Honestly this is a pretty good use case for LLMs and I've seen them used very successfully to detect infection in samples for various neglected tropical diseases. This literally is what AI should be used for.

Can't pigeons do the same thing?
Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is a type of preinvasive tumor that sometimes progresses to a highly deadly form of breast cancer. It accounts for about 25 percent of all breast cancer diagnoses.
Because it is difficult for clinicians to determine the type and stage of DCIS, patients with DCIS are often overtreated. To address this, an interdisciplinary team of researchers from MIT and ETH Zurich developed an AI model that can identify the different stages of DCIS from a cheap and easy-to-obtain breast tissue image. Their model shows that both the state and arrangement of cells in a tissue sample are important for determining the stage of DCIS.
